⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Unless Bayern improves bid, it doesn't seems Mane transfer to Bayern will be easy. It's not a problem from players end, it's just that Liverpool values more than what Bayern is bidding. It will be great if both come down to a solution like Bayern improving the bid slightly and Liverpool accept the fact that player wants to leave and he is aging as well so better let him go.

I have no worries about that , and i think that it will be happend at some stage and they will be coming together at a acceptable range for both Munich and Liverpool.
Mostly it hangs on the advisor for the player , but Bayern Munich will made it as i guess , it also will bring a bit of a better Image light to them.
On the other hand there are so much weeks and time for and on the transfer market , always things come diffrent as you expect.

I mean do they even have that much money to spend? I have zero idea how much money Bayern makes, by the looks of it they are by far the most successful team in bundesliga and in all of germany, they are amazing and they should be proud of that, but how much money does bundesliga brings? Like City and Liverpool are great but they are great in EPL which is watched a lot, bundesliga is not watched that much. So it begs the question, how much money can Bayern even use? Its not even about how much they are willing to spend, its more about how much they have. Like lets assume they are willing to spend 200 million, could they even if they wanted to? I doubt so, which means that they may not even be able to afford Mane, which Liverpool asks 50+ million, whereas Bayern offered like under 30 last I know.

It sometimes become a tough call. We all know how Bayern values their tranfer target. I hardly have seen them spent lot of money. Last I think they spent was on Sane who they bought in 55m I guess but he was also young and was one of the crucial players at City then. Mane is a great target but given the interest from the club and if Liverpool continues to decline the bids and Bayern finds that the tag has gone too much for them where they don't find worth going for, then I don't think they will proceed after that. But that's obviously how Bayern values Mane. There are lot of factors behind like age and the plans they have for the next season. So I can be wrong here if Bayern  values Mane more and desperately want to confirm this signing.

Besides I feel that Mane will be an excellent signing for Bayern. I am sure of him adjusting quickly and scoring goals there in Bundesliga. Hope that nothing goes wrong and he can start a wonderful career there.

I think that they have the money for spend on the offer that Liverpool have made , but its as everywhere when it comes to buy something you would be getting as cheap as possible.
If you dont make a minimum bid first and pay the asked price for sure you will get what you want but at the moment also Bayern Munich was and is affected from the pandemic financially.
They make the most money out from the International Cups like Champions League and merchandise i think , also from other transfers from younger players.

Besides I feel that Mane will be an excellent signing for Bayern. I am sure of him adjusting quickly and scoring goals there in Bundesliga. Hope that nothing goes wrong and he can start a wonderful career there.

Same here and i agree on that , there should be no problem to find quickly into the team , fingers crossed that nothing goes wrong !

Chelsea have confirmed that  Andreas Christensen will leave the club at the end of this month amid Barcelona links.

Chelsea already without the services of Antonio Rudiga with the German joining Real Madrid will have to go all out in the transfer market to get possible replacements  to partner Thiago silver.

Both of those defenders were linked to a transfer to Bayern Munich a few weeks or even months ago as Bayern needs a replacement for Süle because he is leaving Bayern to join Borussia Dortmund next season. I think Bayern needs another central back now because last year they already lost Boateng. It is already clear now that Rüdiger will not go to Bayern as he already joined Real Madrid and i also did not hear any rumors or news anymore that Christensen might join Bayern. It seems like Bayern will not sign an additional central back after all, which seems pretty weird to me.
Yes Bayern has a great central defender with Hernandez but one is not enough obviously. Bayern will probably play with Pavard or Nianzou as the second central back.

It is going to be a really tough process for Chelsea I think. Because they have lost two of their very important defenders already and they will need to make up for this in the summer. Kounde would be a really good transfer for them and signing him would be a good start too. Chelsea are known by making a solid defense and they need to keep this level. I think they will still manage to do this next season too. Tuchel's Chelsea would do a great job in defense with new transfers.

I think Barcelona is going to be the one who will be most interested in this player because they seriously need good defenders in their lineup. But Chelsea and Bayern Munich are also not going to let him go to Barcelona easily. He is only 24 years old and whichever team gets him, he will be able to give a long-term service to that team
But I think Barcelona might have to give up this player because the other two teams which are interested in him have a lot more financial stability compared to Barcelona.

Barcelona is constrained because of financial problems that are not good so it is unlikely that they will succeed in winning the hunt for players with good quality because other teams are more likely to get them considering they have enough money. Meanwhile I think Barcelona will have to sell some of their players to get new players even though their new sponsors seem to be helping financially.

Xavi certainly had to work hard to succeed Barcelona at a time when the team was struggling to get out of financial difficulties. It's never been easy, but so far Xavi has managed to tap into some of the potential of his young players and several players on free transfers to end the season in a good position. I really hope he can get some of the players he wants next season, that will help him a lot.

It is no longer news that Barcelona FC are not financially bouyant, their financial situation will tempt them to sell their players, the club's seem to be trying to make extra income by renting out the stadium for events. It will be unfair if the tremendous work of Xavi isn't recognized for all he has done for this team, there will be no blame on the players who would decide to leave based on the teams financial breakdown to join much more dependable and financially stable club.

Christiansen was not good enough, he had some great moments under Tuchel but he's not a world class defender, and as for Rudiger, I think Tuchel 3 at the back made him so comfortable, he was one of the worst defenders under Sarri and Lampard, we will miss both of them but they are easily replaceable. Both Kounde and Koulibaly will be a significant improvement for both players.

[KTChampions]

Biggest net spenders from Europe's top five leagues since the 2012/2013 season
How did Real Madrid manage to pull this off even with expensive injury prone signings like Eden Hazard?  

It's not pure spending, it's spending minus sales, so Real Madrid is truly the smartest and most efficient club of them all.
But we must not forget that these are not all statistics - huge cash flows are going through offshore companies and various murky schemes. I think that if PSG had not been involved in fraud, then their spending would be closer to 2 billion. They spent about 300 million on Neymar + bought Mbappe under the scheme 40 +140, now they have "renewed" Mbappe for about 150-200 million. In total, this is already 650-700 million lol.

For Christiansen I don't care if leaves or stays, he doesn't have much impact to the Chelsea team, Rudiger is the key defender for which I think his departure will really affect the Chelsea's team, he's the one that does all those dirty jobs for Chelsea and most attackers are skired of him when it comes to defending. Kounde will be a better signing for Chelsea but Rudiger is a world class defender to be replaced.

Christensen is even lucky to leave the club and the blues have no interest to renewed his contract. The Dane's defender is currently out of form, let's say it's his worst form in the team presently. Sarri bench him on several occasions, Lampard also did the same, now Tuchel who was managing him have also kept him on the bench due to his inconsistency in games and countless mistakes he makes in the defense line. Christensen to Madrid is a bad one for for the international Dane's defender, because Madrid is a competitive team, it's all about survive to the fitness. I hope he do better in the team unlike Toni Rudiger who is guaranteed that he will pay full time.

Some sources are saying that Liverpool are waiting for Bayern Munich to make an offer worth at least 40 million pounds for Sadio Mane to raise funds. They are going to be able to afford Darwin Nunez easier by this deal. However I don't know how much eager Bayern Munich are to raise their offer that much. Their first offer wasn't very close to that amount as you can remember. This shouldn't be a big money for Bayern Munich normally of course but maybe they don't want to pay a big amount of money for a 30-year-old player.

Mane is a very good player. I do think it is a strange route he is taking at the moment. He was already very good with man city, then perhaps he should have gone straight to Liverpool? I don't understand why Bayern are quickly getting rid of him, he is still quite young and very talented. But yes, at Bayern you also have some competition. at Liverpool of course. I understand Liverpool want him.

Liverpool deserve a higher offer for Mane as they know Mane is a wanted player because of his qualities. Bayern Munich may agree to increase his offer to Liverpool, and Mane would be a great newcomer to Bayern next season. Liverpool's chances of successfully selling Mane to Bayern appear to be growing, so it's only a matter of time and the final offer now.

if Ronaldo is leaving Manchester United I think it's the best thing that he has to do, alot of Manchester United fans does not appreciate his effort towards the team this season they believe that he's drawing the club back, and moreover they are not playing in the champions league, this is the first time Ronaldo will be missing ucl if eventually he stays at Manchester United, and it's a huge blow to his face

Agree, leaving Man United seems the best option for now. Ronaldo has done his best for Man United. In reality, he is the top scorer in Man United squad last season. If Ronaldo expects to lead Man United winning EPL title, I assume it is difficult to happen. Staying in Man United may hurt him more if Man United perform worse in the next season. There is no guarantee Man United to have a better position in EPL standings next season although they already have a great coach now. Since he is already 37 years old, it is better to have another experience at another club next season.

In what way could he be further affected? By not winning the title next season? Nonsense. He plays football, it's also his profession and he is obliged to do so. It's impossible to win the title every season, even if you move to new clubs every season, which doesn't even sound good. He's not young anymore and any season could be his last, so I don't think he can hurt himself in any way if he doesn't win the title

I agree, cristiano ronaldo is no longer young, when he moved to manchester united he knew about the condition of manchester united, he didn't go to manchester united thinking that he would immediately win something, he is not naive to the point of not realizing that manchester united needs to make big changes, now with a new coach and knowing that he is an excellent coach, why would cristiano want to move just now that things can work out? looking at his personality i doubt he will leave manchester united now

All the more reason. Yes, by the way, he saw Manchester United's prospects perfectly, I think at that age he just wants to enjoy football already. And besides, there have been rumours before that he wants to finish his career at this particular club, I think there are reasons for that and many understand them. Despite his age, he has shown good results even this season, becoming the top scorer of his team

[Zackgeno96]

In any case, changes will be made at Man United. Inbound and outbound, that's for sure. Ten Hag has a certain vision and strategy for this team, and he will bring in the people he thinks would be a good fit for his team. De Ligt of Juventus and de Jong of Barcelona are both prominent in the picture. Of course they have a past at Ajax together, and are both not happy at the moment with their current clubs. For Ronaldo you can still get some money, and more players will be sold. We have all summer left, so a lot of players will be bought and sold. Lewandovski has not yet been linked to United.

[D-law]

News here and there of Pochetino leaving PSG and also of Zidane be employed.
What are the chances of Zidane been employed as head coach of PSG?
And can Paul Pogba work alongside him at PSG ? Great french uniting..

[snipie]

I see many talks about Chelsea here and it appears that Tuchel is announcing to the other clubs that he doesn't want Werner and Ziyech anymore with the club!
Pulisic is also not considered. Rudiger left, Christensen to Barca, Lukaku is also considering to return to Inter.
Unless new signing, Chelsea will have to change its strategy and avoid having many injuries at the same time.

This shouldn't be a big money for Bayern Munich normally of course but maybe they don't want to pay a big amount of money for a 30-year-old player.

Liverpool will obviously hold back at this price as for this reduction just a bit although I doubt they will reduce this amount now.
Even though Mane is 30 years old, I think that if you look at his performance, it's still quite reasonable to be valued at 40 million euros or more, but it's still possible that the higher-ups from Bayern have other thoughts.
On the other hand, Liverpool will obviously put more effort into it even though in the end it will still be sold rather than being let go for free in 2023.

[Welsh]

I'm hearing that Darwin Nunes is a done deal with Manchester United, and other big clubs out of the picture? Well, I'll be honest hearing the Haaland news, then the uncertainty with Salah, and them compounding on top of that learning that Mane is likely to leave, probably at a fee that I don't deem acceptable. As well, as Origi leaving. I honestly, wasn't looking forward to competing with City, but this news gets me excited again, and I'm all ready for the new season.

Klopp really did turn us fans into believers, any signing he makes, no matter the amount I don't question it. The only mistakes he has made would be Karius, but I believe that was mainly due to factors out of his control, for example confidence issues, which were pretty much made permanent due to that final against Madrid.
